Sablier & Concave Watch Crystals

[thesingularity7]

I noticed that there hasn't been any mention of this watch on this forum, so I thought some folks might find this interesting.

I recently had the opportunity to spend about a week with one of these watches from Sablier (Grand Cru 44). They pride themselves on being the first to use a concave crystal on a watch, and have a US Patent on this.

The rest of the watch (dial in particular) was very neat too, with curved indices and hands, and a wine red dial. I believe this watch is targeted towards wine enthusiasts who also like watches, and the case is shaped like a wine glass. Lots of interesting design work here.

Here are some pictures that I took:









I posted my review in the Reviews section here if anyone is interested in some more detailed thoughts - https://www.rolexforums.com/showthread.php?t=771007
